Wrong, there are 4 different options, now 5...a couple are as similar to one another as RP to Peak Engineering... -
<p>I hate these fucking Red Peak campaigners - pretending they are campaigning for <em>what is right!</em> They are not, they are campaigning for what <em>they</em> think is the best flag design. They don't speak for all of NZ, not even fucking close, yet they've kicked and screamed so much that their stupid corporate logo is now being included in the vote.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They have built up a lot of bad will now with all their over the top bullshit - people I know are fucking sick of that flag - and will vote against it on principle IMO.</p> -

<p>Where\ has this been done?</p> -
It's just such a shit flag, it's been railroaded into the referendum because of a handful of key haters. At the start when 40 design were produced it barely registered as a popular option. A couple of polls had it near the bottom of preferred choices.<br>
It looks like a logo because it actually is a logo, it has s very flimsy reference to NZ<br>
And it's just shit, though to be fair all 5 pretty much are and most I feel will keep the status quo. ( due to 5 uninspiring choices and in one case a rip off from an engineering firm in the states) -
<p>I would vote for the current flag over red peak. I think red peak is just fucking shit,look like a cheap tacky corporate logo</p>
-
<p>I strongly connect the current flag as a symbol of my country. The only other symbol i would take over it would be a silver fern. I IN NO WAY associate that red peak bullshit with NZ, there is nothing uniquely NZ about it, it looks shit, it fails on a number of levels. If it came to a straight vote between that and the current flag, i would take the current one every day of the week. </p>

<p>bang on.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>and isn't the whole reason of a new flag to remove the link to the UK? this is all I can think of when I see it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p> -
<p>The only thing red peak does for me is make me understand peoples rage when looking at the other flags they don't like.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They're all a bit 'meh' for me - but i fcuking HATE that red peak one.</p> -

<p>Apparently, well according to some of the social media I have seen anyway, add in that social media also claims NZ has spoken and doesn't want a new flag at all, am sure we could find conclusive evidence on SM that NZ wants Winger for PM!</p> -
<p>What a ridiculously pathetic country I come from.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Folding to white-trash, anti-Key, anti-prosperitiy, anti-forward looking, anti-anything change, sandal wearing, tree hugging, pathetic piece of shit W A N K E R S.</p>

<p>What a fucking joke.</p> -

<p>Prefer the black flag with a silver fern on it, which they would replace the half/half version on the ballot with that.</p>
